Mass Effect Andromeda. I plaid it well after launch after the initial "problems" were fixed, and I think it's a good game. I just wish we'd get a sequel.

call of duty world war 2. my favorite one (mostly cause its the only one im actually good at haha) but a lot of people hated it
Shadow the Hedgehog
Megaman X7
Looking back, I know why. I was just so happy to play as Shadow/3D Zero, I really didn't care about the many faults these games have.
That reminded me that Sonic Unleashed was the only game I ever got refunded.
I bought the game to play with my kids, expecting a colorful and fun Sonic game. I quickly realized it was quite different, much more violent than I expected. So I traded it for Sonic Colors, which was a bit more kid friendly.
The last actually ambitious Sonic game imo
If it was for me I'd welcome with the darker mood, but the game was for my kids.
Battlefield 1, I liked its slower-paced combat and need for teamwork for things like ships and the heavy bomber (original, not the super heavy).
It was different than almost all contemporary shooters, and I really found that refreshing. It also had a strong art design and really looked the part for WW1, even if some of the weapons were prototypes or team weapons (which should have been cut, imo) or vehicles were tweaked for gameplay (understandable, the German tanks were extremely tippy, and the French tanks were slower IRL)
On the topic of Sonic Unleashed, I played it as a kid on the Wii and actively disliked it because it just seemed sad and freaky to see Sonic effectively become mutated.
To give some idea, back then I had no internet so whatever games we had, I always gave a good go and I'd always play even the most mediocre of games.
We also had Sonic Colors and that game just felt the total opposite: very positive, lots of eye candy, arcadey, very much enjoyed it as a kid.
Some 20 years later and I'm speaking to a Sonic fan and they bring up how they've played every single game including Unleashed, and it was the only one they hated, which made me realise I'm not the only one.
To answer your question, I'd say Shrek for the Xbox - I did enjoy Shrek 2 more than the original game as a kid, but I also didn't mind the original either.
Once I had internet, I saw plenty of references to the original game as the butt of jokes and an example of what games should not be, and honestly those criticisms were valid.
